All it takes is one day...
So I have a cinnamon ball python, female, and I thought, maybe I could breed her. So I put a pastel male in with her. However, I forgot to weigh her so after one day I decided to weigh her to see what her weight was, but she was underweight by 100 grams 1900), playing it safe, I moved the pastel male out.
So about a month ago, I checked on her and found she was sitting on a clutch of 6 eggs (because she'd stopped eating which is rare for her). So I transferred them to vermiculite/perlite thinking they were fresh. They started to collapse, so I was panicking, thinking it's too early for them to hatch and writing them off as soon-going-to-be dead. One dried out and so I removed it from the top to the side, it eventually died.
After a lot of upsets where the heating turned off one time, and having to move them out due to fumigation, and one night in the cold because the power turned off, I was sure they would all die.
Then today, surprise, surprise they all hatched.
Yeah, so apparently it only takes one day for a female to become gravid. 1 freaking day. And her eggs turned out hardy despite everything.
Looks like I got a pewter, I think. Since this is their first day, I'm not sure until they come out and then I can sex them and get your votes. I see definite cinnamon patterns on all of them though.
